Random Site Stuff

An anonymous source tells us "KT = AZ" I assume that means Kevin Towers is the new GM of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Either that or KT Tunstall is really the Brooklyn Rapper AZ. Atlhough that seems less likely.
We thought we could bribe you to write more FanPosts but you proved that you cannot be bribed. We thought by offering a $150 MLB.com gift card to the highest recommended FanPost that we'd see an increase in quality contributions. The stats don't lie, FanPosts are down -45% this month, just 0.67 a day. Of those 0.67 written each day, 90% complain that they have to write 300 words. The best I can tell, it's a two way race right now between Axion's FanPost about Season Ticket Holder Night and The Kipper's FanPost about the last Portland Beaver's game.
You should seriously think about going to the ballpark for these last 7 games. Do yourself a favor and buy a discounted ticket from the San Diego Padres | Online Ticket Office. Buy 1 ticket get the second for $1 using Promo Code: GASLAMP. There are now identical deals being offered by other organizations with different promo codes, but seriously eff them.
Speaking of going to games, if you're a brave soul you can meet a rogue group of Gaslamp Ballers at Saturday's game. Maybe you can meet a new friend or enjoy a quiet in depth Padres discussion. Ah, who am I fooling? I'm only mentioning this to alert Petco Park security.
Last month was our biggest traffic month for the site. I wish we could take credit for that, but admittedly it's because the Padres were awesome. However, this month is staged to set a new record, which I guess proves that people also like to slow to watch a car wreck.

"bolster"

Is that what they’re calling it these days?

Crap

So the D-backs might actually be good in the future….

Maybe they'll sign Vinny Castilla

Because KT is “sick of seeing him hit home runs against his teams”

Ehhhh, I don't deserve a signature...

Can I get a Tim Stauffer jersey with $150?

I’ve got my first ever fan post coming in the next few days about visiting the actual Field of Dreams in Dyersville, IA last weekend, while wearing a Gaslamp Ball shirt. I’m hoping some of the magic at the field will wear off on this team through the shirt, or something cheesy like that.
